I'm wondering if it's possible to insert some text instead of a logo in the fixed nav var. I have the menu setup the way I want but instead of my site title or an image I would like to put some social links sort of like the ones used in Branding tutorial in the Pagelines docs section. http://docs.pageline...a-branding-area

This is possible but you'd need to use a hook to insert the code into the fixed nav, unfortunately you wouldn't be able to do it via the drag and drop. The best way to do this would be to set up html for the icons in the way you want inside a textbox or similar so you get the layout and the css exactly how you want them.

Then activate the actionmap option inside the Pro Tools plugin so you can see which hook you'd need to use to position the code in the best place inside the fixed nav. Make a note of that hook and use the instruction here to add your html into that hook - http://docs.pageline.../advanced/hooks

Thanks for the response. I'm getting closer to a solution but unfortunately the ActionMap is pretty incomplete. It's not showing a lot of possible hooks that are present in the pagelines hooks documentation: http://www.pagelines...libs/hooks.html

Notable among the missing hooks is the "navbar_brand" hook that's actually part of the very helpful sample code provided on the link you provided.

The other disappointing thing I found is that the Hooker plugin also doesn't show a lot of these possible hooks so I'm learning all about the functions.php file now.

After adding the sample pretty much verbatim from the advanced hooks example I was able to replace the fixed nav title with my new code but the formatting is all wonky. I think that's just going to be a matter of editing the CSS to get things to fall in place.

Thank you for the pointing me in the right direction. Even though some of the tools don't seem to be working 100% the way I would have expected I'm at least a lot closer than I was.

Action map will only show the hooks loaded on the page, not all hooks are loaded on every page it depends which sections are active etc. Hooker will only include DMS related hooks, not all the additional hooks provided by WP.

The hook once in place will only place the code into the required area, so you're correct that you'll need to use css to get the styling and alignment correct in the layout to get it looking the way you need it in the layout.

Action map will only show the hooks loaded on the page, not all hooks are loaded on every page it depends which sections are active etc. Hooker will only include DMS related hooks, not all the additional hooks provided by WP.

So this part is where I was confused. I would have expected to see the navbar_brand hook displayed on every page because it's in the fixed nav bar so is displayed on every page. And I also was hoping to see it in Hooker because I thought it was a DMS specific hook. But neither was true. However after adding the example code to the functions.php in the pagelines_customization_plugin folder things started to fall into place.

I'm still having a little trouble with placement since it doesn't seem like my replacement HTML wants to align all the way to the left of the fixed nav bar section, and I get some weird responsive behavior when I shrink the window down to mobile size but hopefully I can resolve those in time.

The site is: http://simplify.bi It's all test content at the moment because I'm trying to get all the layout things worked out, but it's coming along.

Hi there, navbar_brand is a wp filter not an action hook which is probably why it's not included. Hooker and actionmap will only show action hooks on the page, not filters. I will check with the core team to confirm that for you.

Thanks. I'm still learning the different between filters and actions and how to determine which hook is which. I think I thought a hook was just a hook and then you could apply a filter or an action to that hook. Clearly I misunderstood how it all works. Thanks for the assistance.

Similar problem to above. Except I am trying to make changes to the link for the logo in the "Navi" section. I can't find any filters for that section or when I use the child theme with the altered "navi" section included it does not override the section.

I have just added a the Navi section to my child themes sections folder and made some basic changes, these changes appeared. What child theme are you using and what changes did you make and to which file?
